please wait with updating the required version until 2.8.12 final is out.
There have been complaints about requiring unreleased versions of cmake, e.g. 
by Aaron.
I actually don't have to say that, since it should be obvious to everybody 
here, I also object to requiring non-final versions of cmake, it just makes 
life harder for everybody trying to contribute.
Except the very very early phase before cmake 2.4.3 or so, we never did that, 
and I don't think we need to start with that now.
